mint Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/europe/article5133156.eceIt's late in the day and I just feel like a bit of mischief-making!Why was le petit Nicolas late?Did Carla have yet another change of clothes (we women have been known to do that on a big occasion outing) before boarding the helicopter?Are the French a punctual people or not (as the case may be)?Any comments, anybody? Oh go on, just for a laugh, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mint Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 Footnote to my OP, the OH has just told me that Carla didn't make it at all.So, Krusty, you know something the rest of us don't perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillan Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Like some in our village perhaps he thought he would turn up after just for the buffet and free drink. [;-)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 [quote user="Puzzled"]Carla was there and from the few photos I have seen, she knew exactly where the cameras were! [/quote]We watched this on French television and yes Carla was there. Her clothes were very understated and very ........... err ..................demure.Whilst we couldn't remember it happening before we just thought they'd added the eleventh minute to the eleventh hour etc. Charles looked very King like and Camila looked, well err Camila like. There was another lady there (local Mayoress?) who could have been Camila's double. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitty Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Perhaps Nicholas and Carla had a blazing row? Do you remember the time that the Princess of Wales arrived late for a Rembrance Service and was lambasted by the press? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 [quote user="Puzzled"]Do you think she should wear a hat for these things or is part of her charm that she doesn't look like Camilla ?[Www][/quote]Can't say I blame Carla for not wanting to wear a dead bird on her head! At least that's what I think Camilla habitually wears, including to her own wedding (which incidentally might allegedly have been illegal after all).See, told you I felt mischievous!
